Falstaff: 100 Punkte

"Tiefdunkles Rubingranat, violette Reflexe, zarte Randaufhellung. Zart floral unterlegte reife Herzkirschen, feines Cassis, Rosenblätter, facettenreiches Bukett, ein Hauch von Edelholz, vielschichtige Aromatik. Stoffig, elegant, feine Extraktsüße, feine Frucht, seidige, tragende Tannine, ungemein komplex, mineralisch, frisch strukturiert, bleibt minutenlang haften, sicheres Reifepotenzial für viele Jahrzehnte. Das Idealbild eines klassischen Margaux für die neuen Zeiten." - Peter Moser (04/2026)


Yves Beck: 98-99 Punkte

"Das Bouquet verspricht viel Tiefe. Der filigrane Charakter bringt zahlreichen Aromen zur Geltung, ohne dass eines davon dominiert. Noten von roten Beeren unterstreichen die vorhandene Frische, ebenso wie Anklänge von Eukalyptus und Pfeffer und ein Hauch von Zimt. Eher schlank im Auftakt, gewinnt der Wein nach und nach an Fülle. Er wird von samtenen, kompakten Tanninen getragen, die ihre Kraft auf subtile Weise aufteilen. Die Säurestruktur hält sich im Hintergrund und verleiht die notwendige Energie, um Spannung sowie Definition zu gewährleisten. Ein vielschichtiger Château Margaux grosser Finesse mit dem Ziel, durch seine vielen Details zu glänzen und eine auf Eleganz basierende Einheit zu schaffen. Ich würde ihn mir ein bisschen strahlender und kraftvoller wünschen. Der Ausbau wird dementsprechend entscheidend sein." (04/2026)


Jane Anson: 98-100 Punkte 

"More dense and yet more soft than the Pavillon Rouge, fully anchored in place and yet rising through the palate, with rose petals, pomegranate, cassis and damson fruits, so juicy and full of character, slate and crushed rocks, peony and iris, with volume that is expansive and striking. These guys held on to harvest after the rains and have been rewarded for it - can't have been easy as everyone was picking around them, but this was a great decision that shows just what was capable in this vintage. 22hl/ha yield across the vineyard, harvest September 8 for young Merlot, then Cabernet Sauvignon began September 19 and finished September 29. 14% press wine, so a little less than usual because of the natural concentration. 22hl/ha yield across the vineyard, IPT81,3.76ph. 37% 1st wine. I dont give 100 points En Primeur, but if I did, this would get it. It's a slam dunk." (04/2026)


Decanter: 98 Punkte 

"Easily one of the wines of the vintage and clear contender for a 100-point wine that benefited from slightly later picking after the rain with the Cabernets harvested from the 19 September. So floral, what a wonderful bouquet of aromas with wild flowers, medicinal herbs and touches of eucalyptus. Crushed velvet, round and enveloping, so balanced with energy and flair. Juicy and alive, bright with fresh strawberries and cherries and a chalky backbone. Grippy with lovely salinity and focus. Feels incredibly sophisticated, a touch firm but pure and precise with refinement. You can feel the structure – it has concentration but an almost aerial quality that just glides over the tongue. So delicate for so much concentration – really a powerful yet almost understated wine with plenty of Margaux charm, ripe but cool fruit and aromatic purity. So perfect and nothing missing. 37% grand vin (lowest production since 1856 with yields of just 22hl/ha). 1% Petit Verdot completes the blend. 3.72pH. 81 IPT." - Georgina Hindle (04/2026)


Vinum: 99 Punkte 

"Einmal mehr ist diese Nase umwerfend; viel Floralität über dunkler Frucht, Minze, blonder Tabak, Oreganokräuter; im Auftakt wuchtig, fast schon zwei Mund voll Wein, ungemein cremige Textur, die Opulenz transferiert sich am mittleren Gaumen, der Wein wird kontinuierlich fokussierter und vertikaler, Finesse und Kraft vermählen sich zu einem perfekt austarierten Ganzen; im Abgang von erhabener Länge und mit fast schon paradoxen Frische. Ein grosser Margaux." - Adrian van Velsen (04/2026)

The 2025 Château Margaux was picked at 22 hl/ha between 10 and 29 September. This year it represents 37% of the total crop, a little down on recent vintages, and was matured in 100% new oak as usual. The first thing that you notice on this Château Margaux is the purity of fruit, a signature of the First Growth but taken to its maximum in this vintage. Perfumed blueberry, crushed violet and iris flower, a touch of iodine and a distant trace of the estuary. Wonderful delineation. The palate is medium-bodied with velvety tannins, fine delineation and poise. There is backbone to this Margaux but it is disguised under the layers of pure blackberry and blueberry fruit, dovetailing into a lightly spiced but very persistent finish. It fans out wonderfully, completing a very alluring wine in the making. This vintage contains 13.8% alcohol.

The texture of this wine is exceptional, with black currant, dark plum, chocolate and orange blossom aromas. Full-bodied with round and creamy tannins that fill the mouth and give a caressing texture. Very long and seductive. Gentle at the end. It's lush, velvety and luxurious. 89% cabernet sauvignon, 6% merlot, 4% cabernet franc and 1% petit verdot. (04/2026)

Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2025 Château Margaux charges out with bold notes of black currant jelly, juicy plums, and fresh boysenberries, giving way to an undercurrent of tilled soil, tar, licorice, and violets, with a touch of graphite. The medium-bodied palate is so graceful and elegant with super-intense black fruit layers and very fine-grained tannins, supported by plenty of tension, finishing long and fragrant. There's so much energy and restrained power here—exhilarating! The blend is 89% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Merlot, 4% Cabernet Franc, and 1% Petit Verdot. It has a pH of 3.72 and the alcohol is 13.8%. The IPT is 81. This is 37% of production—usually it is around 40%. Yields were just 20 hl/ha. (04/2026)


Ivar Bjurner: 96-100 Punkte  

Intense and deep nose, full bodied, round and creamy wine with lots of blackberry-infused elegant fruit and a fine layer of cassis underneath. This is a fine, fresh and juicy vintage of Château Margaux and a wine that will provide nice drinking early on. Very smooth, very soft and very velvety with lots of cassis filled fruit and well integrated tannins. Also this vintage has a higher percentage of Cabernet Sauvignon than before as that grape nowadays reaches full maturity due to the climate changes. This means that the chateau does not need so much Merlot in the blend to even out any harsh or green cabernet. (05/2026)

97-100 POINTS

A blend of 89% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Merlot, 4% Cabernet Franc and 1% Petit Verdot, the 2025 Château Margaux is a deep, authoritative wine that represents some 37% of the estate's production this year. Unwinding in the glass with notes of dark berries, violets, lilac and pencil shavings, framed by a deft touch of new oak, it's medium- to full-bodied, dense and layered, with a concentrated core of fruit framed by sweet, powdery tannins and lively acids. This will certainly require some patience, but it is a prodigious Château Margaux in the making. It checks in at 13.8% alcohol and a pH of 3.72.
